return for political work done in the interests of
the aforesaid congressman. Because of the Jack
Mathewses, the John Halls, and the Booths. Presi­
dent Roosevelt has turned a number of Fulton’s
nominees down and appointed men of his own
selection. Now it is said Senator Fulton will op-

As we view it, Death has solved what was com­
ing to be a difficult problem. If he had resigned
his senatorial position, it would have been equiva­
lent to a confession of guilt. Nor could the senate
take any official action until the matter had been
finally settled by the courts. In the meantime,
Oregon’s interests would probably suffer from in­
adequate representation in the senate. Death,
under the circumstances, was doubtless welcomed
by Senator Mitchell, by the United States senate,
and by the state of Oregon.
W'ith the passing of our senior senator. let us
remember his long years of brilliant, useful serv­
ice to the state, rather than the one mistake that
made the last few months of his life sorrowful.
Let us remember his many useful years to the
people of Oregon, and cover the one last year of
his disgrace and life with the mantle of charity.

favorably mentioned is that of Hon. James K.
Weatherford, of this county. Mr. Weatherford’s
ability and known high character for honor and

position. He would not be prejudiced against any
portion of the state and would give his best ener­
gies to the advancement of all and every portion.
His location is ideal. Being a resident of the first
congressional district, his appointment would place
a senator in each district, making the representa-
tion in Congress equal from each. It would la»
